Groups Associated With the Harris-Walz Campaign Are Illegally Paying "Influencers" to Propagandize For Them -- and Change Their Votes
When Harris became the nominee, the "precision microinfluencer marketing" company "People First" set up a "creator portal" for influencers to "apply" for the job of promoting Harris. A post on the company's website, titled "Let's Win This Kamala," tells influencers that they will be expected to share three posts reflecting their support for Harris.
The website's IP address indicates that it started out as "Let's Do It Joe," but apparently switched to "Let's Win This Kamala" after Biden was forcibly retired.
Join our campaign to help elect Kamala Harris in 2024! This campaign aims to educate your followers about the stakes of this election, increase positive associations with Harris, and build support with audiences like yours. Your voice is powerful -- and this is your opportunity to inspire, educate, and influence your community. In a series of 3 posts online, you will share factual information and personal anecdotes that help your audience connect with your commitment to supporting Harris. We want to know your reasons for saying, "Let's Do It, Kamala!"
People First also allegedly reaches out to influencers through email and offers them money to promote Harris. Nicole Arbour, a Canadian comedienne, singer, actress, and YouTuber, said on her podcast, the Arbour Affect, Friday that she was contacted by several organizations, including People First, and offered $25,000 to support Harris. [Update: Arbour told American Greatness on Sunday that an influencer marketing agency called HypeClash also offered her "six figures" to explain on her podcast why she was switching her vote to Harris.] TikTok star Meghan Corum went public with her story on Wednesday, claiming she was offered an astounding $50,000 to flip from being a Trump supporter to being a Harris supporter. During her podcast, Arbour told her followers that she wanted to tell them what's been going on because this would be her last video before the election. The comedienne noted that she has made fun of both Harris and Trump, but "I need you guys to know that when celebrities, influencers, musicians, whoever are promoting Harris--it's because they're paid." Arbour said that she knows this because "different PACS, different groups" associated with the Harris campaign have approached her three times. "They always come out with the same offer: 'we want you to promote Kamala, we want you to say these talking points'" she explained. Arbour displayed an email she received from People First on Sept 8, offering "compensation" for three pro-Harris posts.
Arbour told American Greatness that other agencies and PACs have also reached out to her with lucrative offers for pro-Harris content.
More at the link. I know some have other theories about Kamala's celebrity endorsers. Welcome to the Election Eve! Oh boy, was I on a Journey Into Anxiety this weekend due to some (dubious) poll numbers. I'll post about that later. I'm just glad it's almost over. I'm pretty agitated! I'm at that point where I'm like, "Doc, I don't care if the test results are good or bad, I just want to know them so that my brain can stop trying to predict the results." In about 32 hours we'll know whether we still have a country or not. Here's a little welcome-to-the-working-week for you:

The video very suspiciously starts with the woman lunging towards the front seat. Well, what happened leading up to that? I’m always suspicious when videos are edited like that.
I think I know exactly what happened.
Plus: even if the girl did everything they claim, it’s still a big “who gives a shit?” Jews were getting attacked and threatened by Muslims for months all over NYC. Was anyone even arrested?

Which is so laughably wrong on its face that it should concern no one but Ann Selzter because she may never recover her "gold standard" reputation after this.
I swear. Republicans have been outregistering Democrats in Iowa for the past four years. This isn't because people are joining to vote for Kamala.
Polls are bullshit. That doesn't mean there's no information out there.

It doesn't matter what the polls say. It never did. They are either gonna steal this or they ain't. I suspect they will. While there may be some limit to how much they can steal, I think that limit is under Trump's margin in most swing states. I think he has to win by at least 3 points and probably closer to 5. And even then I'm not sure.

By FOX 29 Staff Updated November 3, 2024
Philadelphia FOX 29 Philadelphia
PHILADELPHIA - Kamala Harris will be in Philadelphia on Election Eve to rally supporters with a long list of musical guests and appearances.
The rally and concert will take place on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway Monday night, just hours before the first votes will be cast for the 2024 presidential election.
DJ Cassidy, Fat Joe, Freeway and Just Blaze, Lady Gaga, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Ricky Martin, The Roots, Jazmine Sullivan and Adam Blackstone and Oprah Winfrey will all take the stage in support of Harris, who will attend with Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff.
The rally and concert is expected to bring traffic nightmares to the city with nearly every road leading to Eakins Oval closing at 5 a.m. Monday, and remaining that way through Election Day.
Philadelphia has served as a frequent campaign stop for both the vice president and former president Donald Trump as they battle to gain victory in several swing states, including Pennsylvania.

I don't know how things will play out. It's very possible that Democrats do have some kind of genuine late surge on election day and swamp Republicans. It's very possible that Democrats just make up numbers so fast in an effort to get ahead of any rulings from courts, those courts that have shown their unwillingness to undo election results no matter the chicanery uncovered.
I just know that Democrats start this in a deep, deep hole.

Yea. I think what happened is this: The girls got in the car. The driver stopped to do a Muslim prayer. He admits that. The girl -- who was probably drunk or at least buzzed -- heard a bunch of Muslim chanting garbage and thought the guy was suicide bomber about to blow the car up. That's why she's screaming for him to "get out, get out."

...The “DHS Bureaucrat Watch List” — a website unveiled in the final weeks of a presidential campaign in which immigration is a key issue — names 51 federal policy experts and high-ranking leaders, the majority of whom are career civil servants at the Department of Homeland Security and other agencies.
It isn't reasonable to use the word "conservative" when referring to a group that is compiling lists of federal employees they want removed from their jobs based on partisanship. This is an extreme act, this group should more correctly be referred to as a "rightwing radical group".
asking federal workers to add names to a list to be fired (or even prosecuted) to inform on their co-workers or neighbors. I have a name for that: NAZI.

I swear, the steal boogeyman has infected the right like crazy.
No, Iowa is not going to get stolen. It's moved to the right, hard, over the past 8 years.
The poll was designed to tell Democrats that they have a chance. It wasn't designed to demoralize conservatives, who have shown that they are voting like it's a presidential year in early voting, but to try and pump up progressives, who are voting in early voting like it's a midterm.
Seriously, if early voting is any indication, Democrats go into election day...WAY down. Like, WAY, WAY down.
And election day tends to be very Republican in turnout.

I'm in the Des Moines suburbs, and have to concur. Fewer Trump signs than i recall in 2016 and 2020, too. In some ways, everything feels a little depressed, in terms of enthusiasm for both sides. Ultimately, though, Trump has the edge, as Republicans in general are pretty dutiful and self-motivating, and Trump has a weird appeal to young, male, irregular voters that comes in clutch.

However, it doesn't work at the presidential level, at least through the unilateral use of depressing polls.
Demoralization works at the state level and lower when one side thinks it's just not worth it anymore to try. Think of MA where Republicans just don't show up anymore, or pretty much the entirety of New England. Democrat power is so entrenched that Republicans can't have a say as has become evident over the past couple of decades, so Republicans check out of the whole process.
That doesn't translate to national polling outside of pre-existing demoralization. Think W's second term and all the spitting conservativism that his second term represented. And then McCain won the nomination. That's a demoralized base, polling just helps sell what everyone already knows but they don't cause it.
Bad polls for Republicans in RI could convince Republicans in RI to not turn out. Bad polls for R's in Iowa...won't work on Republicans in Iowa in 2024.

INSIDE KAMALA HARRIS’S OPEN-BORDERS ALLIANCE WITH UNITED NATIONS BUREAUCRATS:
U.S. taxpayer dollars were spent on foreign nationals’ salaries so they could advise other foreign nationals on the easiest way to migrate to the United States.
At least $81.7 million in U.S. taxpayer funding spent by the open-borders United Nations to allow illegal aliens to bypass the southwest border and fly directly into the United States.
Migration centers set up throughout Central and South America staffed by U.N. bureaucrats.
Nearly 70,000 aliens referred for potential resettlement in the United States.

Sadly, they make up a large portion of Iowa voters (in raw numbers AND mass). As Google helpfully summarizes:
As of 2022, Iowa is ranked 11th or 12th in the nation for adult obesity, with an obesity rate of around 37.9% for White adults, 38.4% for Black adults, and 10.5% for Asian/Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander adults. American Indian/Alaska Native and “Other” ethnicities have higher rates, at 53.5% and 45%, respectively.

Looking at the districts who didn't early vote vs 2020 (when VA went wide with all the early voting), the missing votes seem to be overwhelmingly in D districts...and Youngkin did clean the voting rolls...he did everything he could to help a very unpopular top of ticket...

And he'd have been right. It *should* be legal. There is absolutely no reason why a campaign shouldn't be able to pay whatever shills it pleases.

Remember, 2020 was won by months of mail in ballot fraud, which wasn't enough, and then turned into ballot box counting without Republican observers in the middle of the night like Tammany Hall.
They don't have the mail in ballot lead, and the only question becomes, Can the RNC keep their lawyers and observers in rooms that they are legally obligated to be in?
Seems easy enough, but we must remember that people cheat at elections to actually win. The whole assertion that cheating happens and never changes anything has always confused me.

Trump has turned the GOP into the punk rock of American politics, so if anything's going to pull disaffected, low propensity, soft-partisans out of the woodwork, it's that general attitude.

I'm of two minds on this. Yes, it was insane gov't over-reaction to kill Peanut and Fred. Neither of them were a threat to anyone. It appears that both we raised from very young and were no less domesticated than some crazy dogs and cats out there.
But: there should be limits on what animals can be kept as pets. Squirrels and racoons are wild animals and can carry dangerous diseases. So I can see why they might not be allowed as pets. If the gov't looked the other way on this, the next guy would get a mountain lion as a pet.
I also think the fact that the guy was publicizing this and making money off it factored into the decision. Had the guy kept it on the QT and just enjoyed his pets, I doubt the gov't would have gotten involved.

There's an old story of some Union Cavalrymen coming across a Reb soldier in a retreat. They surround the tattered, shoeless soldier draw a weapon and shout "Surrender Reb! We got you!
Reb looks himself over and says with a sigh 'And a hell of a git you got!' and gives up.
So lets say they fake it somehow. They still have a majority of the country knowing that they cheated massively, a corrupt and divided and incompetent ruling class pulling in many directions, and a terrible international situation of their own creation.
And the same problems from the same lawless ruling class trying to crush out the information age is present in *every* western nation now. The next generation is aborted away or on strike already.

It's still a LOT to flip a 450K margin with an unpopular top of ticket.
It's not impossible, but I'd have liked early vote to be even lower for him to have a chance. A Hillary amount of voters (2016) probably keeps it D. A midterm amount (like Youngkin got) swings it R. We're at roughly 2016 expected voting numbers. To win that, you'd have had to flip 220K voters from one party to the other, or added that many Rs between 2016 and 2024. It's a rough path...doable, especially if rural gets 9o% turnout, and Fairfax, for once, doesn't and stays at like 65-70%, but it will take Tuesday to see if that happens.
2% fed raise and 13%+ fed healthcare plan increases will help tamp down voting here, though...

Not possible. The GOP will know who voted. The flip of that many votes would be apparent immediately. The democrats are over 10 million votes down right now - actually more than 15 million. They need enough turnout to give your sort of option a chance - and there is no evidence that is possible at this point.

I keep waiting for a cascade election in my lifetime. One where so many people break away from the Democrat Party, it's obvious they've lost control.
I'm not talking about a Reagan '84 victory, or even a Bush '88 win, those two were more about being up against really bad candidates.
No, a cascade election would see those numbers of black, latino, and other demographic groups voting for their lives. So I'm expecting a Trump win, but it'll be close. Which it shouldn't be.

>>I don't know HOW Democrats do this.
We've gone over this before, Pa has 100's of thousands of potential registered voters in their back pocket, they've probably prepositioned physical ballots and USB drives with ballots, that they will then inject into the system to arrive at the numbers they need.
They have already said don't expect a result on election night and it's going to take weeks to count, so in that interval they will simply fortify away to their hearts content, announce the Kambalbla as the winner sometime before the end of the month/early December, and that's that.
This sh*t never gets audited, courts don't intervene and once you hit up against statutorily mandated certification dates, it all just gets rubber stamped.

I continue to assert that 2010 was that election.
That Democrats were shocked at the size of the loss, and then they went overboard to fortify for 2012.
That 2012 was stolen.
We know that Detroit just makes up numbers in ballot boxes (Stein's 2016 lawsuit found that out) to the point that 70% of Wayne County couldn't reconcile it's numbers. So, Michigan has been stolen for decades because they didn't start that in 2016. Philly is...well, Philly. FL suddenly went deep red with the firing of Brenda Sykes and the cleaning up the voter rolls after 2020.
Democrats have been holding back the proverbial pendulum from swinging back from Obama's 2008 victory has hard as possible since after 2010. 2016 was a slip up, but they had to overdo the cheat in 2020 to get a minimum victory.
I think America rejected the Democrat Party in 2010, but the GOP helped the Democrat Party in denying that.

I was driving through PA and a black pick-up was in front of my all kitted out inclusive of two huge American flags on polls stick out of the back. Over the top, but awesome.
In front of him was a line of bicyclists taking up our lane and not exactly pushing it if you know what I mean. It was annoying. Next thing I hear is a loud beep and then an intercom loudspeaker coming out of the pick up. The dude says this: "Alright you pedal pushing morons with your special needs helmets. Get out of the way of I'm getting a new hood ornament."
I couldn't stop laughing at what he said, or the expressions on the knuckleheads who scrambled to the side of the road so we could pass.

Actually it does get audited. If those inactive registrations do not show up election day, they do not get to vote. That was not the source of the steal in 2020--it was absentee ballots mailed out and illegal ones commingled with real ones. PA GOP tried to stop in late (think the Pa Sup Ct ruled against the GOP Oct 28th mebbe)
But the SoS there (now gone to prison for other reasons) and election clerks commingled the ballots even after Justice Alito issued an emergency stay order to the state which was ignored.
Pa Supt Ct. this time is not allowing ballots without dates, etc. in accordance with law (ruling was last month) which allows the GOP to instantly go to any court and reverse any county election cheaters from doing the same this year.

You can get away with a little of that shit but the major source of the cheat were absentee ballots that enabled funny business and Covid waived a lot of existing laws requiring poll watchers, etc.
EV and in person voting has little fraud as impersonation or illegal voting in person is very rare. Fraud occurs via direct ballot insertion which is very risky and via absentee ballots usually.
But absentee ballots sent out and received in almost all states is subject to reported numbers sent out and reported numbers sent back. See the NBC link above or you can go to most election division of the states under voting turnout reports and get the sent out and returned absentee ballot stats (and EV too if they have it). Some states are weird and treat EV as absentee ballots.
Far better than the crap than tv news vomits out with its braying sheep.

No, we don't -- outside of a few leaks from internal polls here and there, that tend to support my theory. But mostly I watch what the candidates do. And they were doing what I would expect candidates to do if they saw internal polls that more accurately accounted for this supposedly problematic demo.

Eh, not really true. It's rare because squirrels are prey animals, so they don't interact much with other animals. Also, they're tiny so they're not likely to survive an encounter with a rabid, larger animal. But anything that's a warm blooded mammal can technically get rabies.

Well considering that while many were absolutely certain that if Biden went, the DNC was going to be "chaos" and a "bloodbath", I was saying confidently it's Kamala and everyone will magically get behind her, I think I should be afforded some degree of reason if nothing else.
Their plan seemed to involved deleting Trump before a VP was even picked and giving her an auto win against someone safe like Haley, so yes, I do think she was their plan. Even if it was Biden at that point (unlikely), he's not long for anything and she was still up next.

Not possible. The GOP will know who voted. The flip of that many votes would be apparent immediately. The democrats are over 10 million votes down right now - actually more than 15 million.

I disagree. I have lived in a major inner city for almost a decade and "in person" fraud is always, always there. We just shut our eyes to it because they hide behind minority rights. They have front operations to paper over it but to get 95 percent you need voters who *don't* show up so you can vote them yourselves and dominate the state so you can have safe seats for generations in Washington DC.
But there is one truth, that these votes are baked into the current system and are part of the baseline. It is very difficult to generate new results at a drop of a hat and would be blatant.

and to counter that: "Pit bulls and other large dogs are too dangerous to safety and cannot be allowed outside lest they harm children or the elderly; keeping them inside is cruelty to breed that need room to roam, so the only allowable dogs are teacups and shitzu."

See above, NBC has EV + absentee ballots received so far at 41 Dem, 39 GOP, and 20 percent Indy/Other. They use primary voting of a voter in states with no formal voter party registration.
From Pew, in 2020, 58 percent of Biden's votes came from absentee ballots. About 32 percent of Trump's did.
Election Day in person turnout for GOP was 38 percent in 2020 and 51 percent in 2022. Early voting and absentee were the rest of it.
For Dems, Election Day turnout was 17 percent in 2020 and 34 percent in 2022, with the rest EV or absentee. Even in 2022, 45 percent of Dem votes are by absentee ballot.
